The post you are reporting:
Howard, the Tories under Cameron have never supported electoral reform to the extent and in the way the LibDems want it. As a result, brokering any deal with them is likely to be very tricky, not impossible, but not easy. However, the point is this, at no stage, and that includes his tv speech this afternoon, did Cameron offer anything more than an all-party review of electoral reform. Mingus Campbell derided the offer in the words "we've been there before with Labour and it didn't get anywhere other than a pigeon-hole in Whitehall".
On the other hand, Labour have been promising the country electoral reform for 13 years and have done, apart from sticking something in a pigeon-hole in Whitehall, exactly nothing. Now the P45 is in site, Brown comes out publicly and makes a "genuine" offer to enact electoral change asap. Labour has had 13 years to do this but today suddenly, they are all enthusiastic.
So, despite failing to impress in the voting, Cleggy has found himself "Kingmaker" for the next Parliament.
I'd like to see another GE in the coming weeks, but the only item on the media agenda being to get each party to tell us, "How we will steer the UK through the current financial crisis".
To be honest, I think the lack of this information for the public is the sole cause of our hung Parliament today.
